Archibald Ligonnière jazz quintet at Sortie 13, Pessac

Sortie 13 - salle de concert

On Monday 16 November 2026 at 21:00 the concert hall Sortie 13 in Pessac hosts the jazz drummer and composer Archibald Ligonnière. The listing says his first album as a leader, A New Home, reveals a modern, lyrical and accessible jazz. He is joined by a quintet of Stéphane Guillaume, Tom Ibarra, Jean-Yves Jung and Gildas Boclé. The music is described as rich in harmonies and emotion, both intimate and luminous, and as a search for balance between virtuosity and simplicity, collective energy and personal sensitivity. The listing gives 15 euros in advance, 12 euros for subscribers and 18 euros on the door, and says a youth card gives a second place free. The evening is listed as running from 21:00 to 22:30. A jazz concert in a dedicated hall is easy to enjoy alone, because the room is there for the music and a stool at the edge is enough. «Avec A New Home, son premier album en tant que leader, le batteur et compositeur Archibald Ligonnière dévoile un jazz moderne, lyrique et accessible.» Starts 21:00, ends about 22:30.

Blooming Discord, Doorshan and Dragon Punch rock night, Pessac

Sortie 13 - salle de concert

On Saturday 21 November 2026 at 20:00 the Sortie 13 concert hall in Pessac, next to Bordeaux, hosts a rock and metal evening with three bands: Blooming Discord, Doorshan and Dragon Punch. The listing promises heavy and energetic riffs. Blooming Discord is an alternative metal band from Marseille that released its first album in 2024 and has toured France, Belgium, Italy, Czechia and Canada, and the listing calls its shows energetic and accessible to both seasoned rockers and newcomers. Doorshan comes from Rouen and plays electro rock metal. Tickets are listed at 11 euros for early birds and 14 euros full price. A three-band night is a good plan alone: the changeovers give you time to get a drink and talk, and a metal crowd is often warmer and more welcoming than outsiders expect. «Blooming Discord, Doorshan et Dragon Punch vous plongent dans leurs univers mêlant Rock et Métal pour une soirée de riffs lourds et énergiques.» Starts 20:00, ends about 23:30.

Les Silences dans mon sac, one-woman play, at Salle Le Royal, Pessac

Salle Le Royal

On Wednesday 25 November 2026 at 20:00 Salle Le Royal in Pessac hosts Les Silences dans mon sac, a one-woman stage monologue presented within the Quinzaine de l'égalité et de la diversité. The listing says that a woman alone on stage opens her bag and, through everyday objects, reveals the mechanisms of domestic violence: control, domination, fear, isolation, blows, excuses and silence. It describes the monologue as committed theatre that gives a voice to victims, denounces the indifference and incomprehension around them, and affirms the need to break the silence, since leaving means refusing to die. Entry is free and open to everyone. The listing gives the time as from 20:00 to 22:00. A theatre evening like this is easy to attend alone, since the audience watches in shared silence and a single seat is enough. «Une femme seule en scène ouvre son sac et, à travers des objets du quotidien, dévoile les mécanismes des violences conjugales» Starts 20:00, ends about 22:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Quinzaine de l'égalité et de la diversité (open data). The listing says entry is free and open to all.

Agwuas dance and song show, Maison des arts, Pessac

Maison des arts, Pessac

On Tuesday evening 8 December the Maison des arts at the Bordeaux Montaigne university campus in Pessac hosts Agwuas, a performance by the Chilean choreographer and dancer Marcela Santander Corvalán. It is the second part of her trilogy about the elements, this time about water.

She is joined by a musician and a choir. The full ticket costs 12 euros, with cheaper tiers for reduced and young audiences, and students and staff of the university enter free. The language is French. It starts at 19:00 and finishes at 20:15. «AGWUAS - Marcela Santander Corvalán» Starts 19:00, ends about 20:15.
